Two children were flown to a hospital after a head-on collision in Gila Bend on Tuesday evening, the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office said.

A driver attempting to pass a semi on a dirt road collided with a vehicle in the opposing lane, said Adella Laredo-Tarango, a Sheriff's Office spokesperson. The crash happened near Citrus Valley and Powerline roads.

The semi was kicking up dust and that may have caused visibility issues, Laredo-Tarango said.

Everyone involved in the accident sustained non-life-threatening injuries, but the two children were flown to a hospital by helicopter as a "precautionary measure," Laredo-Tarango said.
